ok got my sps

[aseddon130]

did he advertise it as 'used' or did he say it was brand new? also, reading your comments ganon it seems that theres a problem with the UMD disc drive thing because when i put my PSP into sleep mode while playing Ridge Racers and then boot it back up later i would resume the race as normal and then it would either stop for a second to read the music and other necessary information off the UMD or the framerate would drop for about 5 seconds or so, for the same reason. And if this is happening to you as you play it normally then the UMD drive will be a tad faulty.

thats my theory anyways ... on a happier note, are you loving it or what??

[ganon]

yeah its not bad
he said it was used but in perfect condition....

metal gear acid is gay

[tidusuk123]

send us the ebay link so we can see it!!
also WHY would you get a used PSP? Unless you got it for like £100 or something because such a device deserves to be seen as new!

anyway ask for a refund if you can because the problems may get worse sorry to say.

[ganon]

yeah will do
i got it coz i was getting outbid on eveything else except this which i won for $385

[tidusuk123]

really you could have got a new one for that much money...
i suppose when you're bidding sometimes you just get carried away.
good luck in trying to return it.

[ganon]

yeah easily get carried away
some ****er came into the last half hour and made me bid extra $45

Got mine from this outfit:

Cost a bit more than one from Hong Kong, but they are already in the UK and no risk of Customs Duty.

Ordered 2.00pm Monday arrived 10.00am Tuesday morning.

thats a nice place to buy william. i'd rather pay that little bit extra to ensure that i get something i trust. lik sang have DROPPED their prices very low but the chances of getting caught for duty and customs is high...

I also bought mine off ebay. it had not been opened - everything was still sealed. Got a couple of dead pixels but don't care. You only notice them if you're squinting and looking for them and if the background colour is black. Since I have the US version it has the English manual - in the manual it clearly states that a few dead pixels can be expected in an LCD display. Similar text is shown in manuals for LCD TVs.

Okay i am going to tell this to all of as i did work at a Radio and Electronics equipment store and i dont know now if the problem has been fixed so dont get angry at me for saying this cause it was awhile back. Alright with LCD screens and Plasma Television screens they may not be perfect and may not have every pixel working.

The reason why most of you are having this problem is cause of shipping companies and no not the person putting in the truck and putting in your hands but alot of moving and shifting can destroy pixels or a pixel. Thats one or it could be how it was made but LCD screens are known to have problems like this.

Can You Deal With 1 Blown Pixel?
